NILA, the native wine brand from the Kerala Agricultural University (KAU), is likely to hit the market in a month.

- M S VIDYANANDAN @T'Puram

The excise department on Tuesday approved the labels for the three types of wines under the brand to be launched in the first phase.

The university is now devising a marketing plan for the premium quality products - Nila Cashew Apple Wine, Nila Pineapple Wine and Nila Banana Wine.

Cashew apple wine is made from fruits grown in tropical humid climates.

These fruits have a characteristic tart and astringent flavour.
